Brian,
Thanks for checking. I was just giving a "heads up", as Dubai is majority Sunni. Mine was not a formal warning, rather for informative purposes based on current events.
Good luck to those that decide to go.

Noseda is sending down Bustin Justin, Country Song and Mac Love down on Sunday. The last named could prove to be profitable to follow. He loves very quick ground and can run well from 6-8f. he hasnt won since sept 2004, but has run quite well since. the change of trainer could spark him into action

I´ve been away from this board from a long time!....sorry about that :-)

Tomorrow starts the Dubai Racing Carnival....and I confess that brazilian horses have one of their best animals out there this year...

Tomorrow, they are:

2nd race - Alto Taquari;
3rd race - Comandante Xará, Te Voglio Bene and Vampiro;
4th race - Estrela Brynhil (USA bred, but raced here in Brazil), Nhecolândia and Indochine;
5th race - Oakfast, Alcomo and Leaving Alone;
6th race - Evil Knievel;
7th race - Bandido Secreto, Impossible Ski and Lucky Dance

They are too many to talk one by one, but you shoul watch mainly, i think:

Alto Taquari (very talented colt); Comandante Xará and Vampiro (very good animals on the dirt); Estrela Brynhil (incredible inprovemente in her last 2 races, and people from the inside tell that she has broken some track records on her workouts); Indochine and Nhecolandia (also respectable fillies); Oakfast (very fast front running horse...and very talented, too); Evil Knievel (best older horse here in Brazil 2 years ago...participated in last year's racing carnival and I don't know his condition any more...but, in shape, excelent horse) and Bandido Secreto (The best brazilian TURF miler....but only when the grass is dry and he can race without shoes!...won the São Paulo State's International Mile and got 2nd behind Top Hat when this last broke 10f. turf world record...less than 2 lenghts behind him, i think)

Let's see!!

Bye!

I forgot about Imperialista in the 7th race, too...i think he is also entered...and he is specialist on the dirt...very good horse too.

Does anybody know where can I get the official entries?? I only could get in the site (www.dubairacingclub.com) last year's entries.

Thanks!
